[dave11486]

I am in a investments competition that is only a month long and I have already fallin in last place. I need to hit a few stocks before they report their earnings. Anyone have any tips or know where I can find out when companies report their earnings. Thanks.

Dave,
Go to the library and get a few easy investment books.
Pick a few stocks and track them weekly at the close on Friday.
Read Barron's or the Wall Street Journal.

You will pick up knowledge quickly.

Even though it's pretty dry reading I would recommend a textbook from a beginning college investing course as well.

Trust me the time and money you spend studying it will be repaid 100X. There is no greater value than knowing finances.

go to yahoo finance . then look at investing.

from there hit stocks .

once youre there you will see a link for stock screener .

click on it . and then in to the java one.

i set up a screener that checked for these numbers :

PEG Ratio under 0.5
Return on Assets of > 10 %
Return on Equity of > 15 %
% Held by Institutions at > 30 %
5 year estimated growth at > 25 %
Total Debt / Equity Ratio < 0.5

Those criteria brought back 14 stocks that were up a combined 6 % in 2.5 days from Wed. afternoon to Fridays close last week.

12 of the 14 were up . 9 of the 14 were up over $850 based on owning 300 shares. 5 were up over $ 1200 .

The 2 that were down based on 300 shares were down $ 30. and $ 588.00

A $ 214,000 investment on Wed. was up to $ 227,000 Friday at 4.

If interested I can list the symbols .


Also at your library you might find Investors Business Daily. Incredible newspaper.

What do you think Eagle Materials EXP will report tomorrow if you have an opinion on it?

the street is calling for .62 a share. last year they did .86 i think.

its a housing stock . they make wallboard and such . gotta be nervous with those .

i think if you picked a few oil stocks . marathon, chevron , tesoro , OIH , as examples and held then thru august , you would make money .

even the drillers like hercules or dri quip ( makes drilling equip. )
